Setup and Assembly

Careful assembly is crucial for the stability and safety of your cat tree. Please follow these general steps. Refer to the included graphical instructions for detailed, step-by-step guidance.

1. Unpack All Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Verify that all components listed in the parts list are present and undamaged.
2. Identify Parts: Match each part to the corresponding labels or diagrams in the assembly instructions.
3. Assemble the Base Cabinet: Begin by assembling the base litter box enclosure. Attach the side panels, back panel, and bottom panel to the main frame. Ensure all connections are secure. The louvered double doors should be attached last.
4. Attach Adjustable Feet: Install the four adjustable feet to the bottom of the base cabinet to ensure stability and protect your floor.
5. Mount the Cat House: Place and secure the smaller cat house unit onto the top of the base cabinet.
6. Install Scratching Posts and Platforms: Attach the sisal-wrapped scratching posts to the base and platforms. Gradually build up the structure, securing each platform and post as indicated in the instructions. Ensure all screws are tightened.
7. Add Accessories: Attach the plush cushions, hammock, and dangling pom-pom balls to their designated locations.
8. Final Check: Once assembled, gently shake the cat tree to ensure it is stable. Retighten any loose screws if necessary.

Note: Some assembly steps may require drilling into boards without pre-drilled holes. A power drill is recommended for easier assembly, though it can be done without one.

Operating Instructions

The HOOBRO Cat Tree is designed to cater to your cat's natural behaviors and provide multiple functions:

• Climbing and Exploration: The multi-level design with varying heights encourages cats to climb, jump, and explore, satisfying their natural instinct to be in elevated positions.
• Scratching: The durable sisal-wrapped posts provide an ideal surface for cats to sharpen their claws, diverting them from furniture.
• Resting and Napping: Plush platforms, a cozy hammock, and an enclosed cat house offer multiple comfortable spots for your cats to rest, sleep, and observe their surroundings.
• Hidden Litter Box: The spacious base cabinet with louvered doors provides a private and ventilated space for a litter box, helping to contain odors and keep your home tidy. The arched entrance (18 x 24 cm) allows even large cats like Maine Coons to enter and exit comfortably. This cabinet can also be used for storing cat food or other supplies.
• Playtime: The detachable pom-pom balls stimulate play and hunting instincts, providing entertainment for your cats.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and hygiene of your HOOBRO Cat Tree, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Clean the cat tree with a dry or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Storage: Store the cat tree in a dry place to prevent damage to the materials.
• Regular Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure. Tighten any loose fasteners to maintain stability.
• Sisal Post Care: While sisal is durable, inspect scratching posts for significant wear. Replace if severely damaged to continue providing an effective scratching surface.
• Litter Box Area: Regularly clean the litter box enclosure to maintain hygiene and minimize odors. The louvered doors provide ventilation, but consistent cleaning is essential.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your HOOBRO Cat Tree, consider the following:

• Instability: If the cat tree feels wobbly, recheck all connections and ensure screws are fully tightened. Make sure the adjustable feet on the base are properly leveled on an even surface.
• Cat Not Using It: Cats can be particular. Try placing familiar blankets or toys on the platforms. Use catnip to attract them to the scratching posts or resting areas. Ensure the tree is in a location your cat feels safe and comfortable.
• Parts Missing/Damaged: If you find any parts missing or damaged upon unpacking, please contact customer support immediately for assistance.
